boyle's Law
Early proponent of the elemental nature of matter and the nature of vacuum. Known best for Boyle's Law.
Boyle's Law:
The ideal gas law which Boyle is known for actually appears in an appendix written in 1662 to his New Experiments Physio-Mechanicall, Touching the Spring of the Air and its Effects (Made, for the Most Part, in a New Pneumatical Engine)[ (1660). Basically, the law states for a gas of constant temperature, changes in pressure are inversely proportional to changes in volume.
